Musée Charles-Louis Philippe
Cérilly · Allier · Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
The Charles-Louis Philippe Museum is a house museum located in Cérilly, in Allier, dedicated to the life and work of writer Charles-Louis Philippe (1874-1909). A site museum situated in rural territory, it falls within the category of Houses of Illustrious Figures and literary museums. The museum documents the career of this writer from a humble background—son of a clog maker—who became one of the major figures of French literature of his time, friend of Gide and Claudel, and co-founder of the Nouvelle Revue Française. The establishment explores Charles-Louis Philippe's world through his biography, his publications, and his literary influence. Its location in his native city makes it possible to contextualize the importance of Burgundy and his Cérilly childhood in his writing.
